Melanie Schuster’s *Working Man* follows Dakota Phillips, a funny and feisty true‑crime writer who has ''almost everything she wants'' but remains on the hunt for the perfect man. She imagines someone tall, educated, and cultured, wrapped in rich chocolate brown, while her insecurities about her curves and independent streak keep her searching.
Enter Nick, a self‑made mogul who thrives on hard work, play, and the finer things in life. Though he’s not flawless, he makes Dakota feel beautiful and desirable, yet she can’t fully surrender to a take‑charge man.
